Flamingo Road Nursery

In order to thrive, gardens need to be watered regularly and fenced off from roving teenagers looking for fresh vegetables. Guard your garden with this Groupon.

$15 for $30 Worth of Plants, Pottery, and Gardening Goods

The shop's stock includes red-leafed begonia torches ($15.99 for a 3 gal. plant), 6-inch philo gloriosums ($9.99), black bat plants ($49.99 for a 3 gal. plant), and assorted herb and vegetable plants ($2.49 each). The staff encourages shoppers to bring in a photo of the area they plan to landscape, as well as rough dimensions, if they'd like help with some ideas for plants that will flourish and complement the space.

Flamingo Road Nursery's 6,000-square-foot gift shop stocks thousands of unique and interesting items, including such holiday gifts as windchimes, poinsettias, orchids, whimsical garden stakes, and wall art. This Groupon is also valid toward a Christmas tree during Flamingo Road Nursery’s Christmas Festival (December 1–9), which features sleigh rides, visits from Santa, and a unique Christmas-tree forest. Visit the nursery's website for further details.

Flamingo Road Nursery

Flamingo Road Nursery owner Jim Dezell is used to the surprise on people's faces when they come to the nursery for the first time. "People commonly come in and say, ‘Wow, I never knew there was a garden center like this,’" he says. Maybe they're wowed by the park-like landscaping, complete with display gardens designed to inspire shoppers with ideas for plant combinations. Maybe they're blown away at the fountains, statues, and thousands of pieces of pottery. Or maybe they've just seen the pond surrounded by colorfully painted "shops" and palm trees. It's a "true experience" that's as much about shopping as it is about creating "memory and traditions", wrote Today's Garden Center in 2011, when it picked Flamingo Road Nursery as the most revolutionary garden center in the nation.

In addition to helping shoppers navigate the selection of flowers, trees, and other plants, the knowledgeable staff can also help them complete landscaping projects with outdoor artwork, waterfalls, and more. "It's professional advice here," says Jim. "We really try to understand our customers' needs and offer solutions that will both excite them and provide long-term enjoyment." He even recommends people bring in dimensions and photos of their space so the staff can get a better idea of what will grow well there. Flamingo Road Nursery offers delivery and complete installation services. Other garden-centric items, such as fountains and colorful adirondack furniture, give customers more chances to enjoy their outdoor living spaces.

The nursery also hosts an on-site Farmers Market shop, which hosts a large assortment of fresh fruits, vegetables, and artisan foods—some of the produce is even picked at the nursery itself. On the weekends, a beekeeper visits the store to explain how bees make honey to visiting kids, using the in-store observation beehive as a teaching tool. On Saturdays and Sundays, authentic southern BBQ including pulled pork, sausage, chicken, and ribs that have been slowly smoked for 5–10 hours are served under the giant tiki hut. The nursery holds seasonal celebrations as well, including an annual fall festival with pumpkin patch and a Christmas festival replete with sleigh rides, Santa visits, and a Christmas tree forest.
